Cloud networking company Cato Networks introduced GenAI security controls for Cato Cloud Access Security Broker, including a shadow AI dashboard and policy engine. The new shadow AI dashboard allows enterprises to detect, analyze and gain insights into the use of Gen AI, while the policy engine gives enterprises the power to take control of user activity in generative AI applications. Combined, the new offerings allow security and information technology teams to balance innovation with risk management. The new generative AI security tools introduced for Cato CASB allow security and IT teams to uncover shadow AI use by identifying and classifying generative AI applications across the organization. The service offers a catalog of over 950 generative AI apps, allowing teams to distinguish between sanctioned and unsanctioned tools in use. The new controls also enable granular access management, allowing organizations to define what generative AI applications users can access and what actions, such as uploading or downloading, are permitted. Being able to do so ensures responsible use of generative AI tools in line with corporate policies. Cato CASB now offers real-time protection against data exposure by preventing sensitive information from being uploaded to large language models. It also supports governance and compliance with full visibility into user activity, aligning generative AI use with regulatory standards.
